^+ to both the above (about T-Mobile)... but Apple, that's a bit far fetched and someones been smoking some REALLY good stuff (and they need to share:icon_ devil... Google doesn't have the capital and I doubt they could even raise enough if they tried. Not to mention there's NO way Jobs (or whomever the major share-holders are) would ever sell.

Google establishes Android further, buys T-Mobile, and then offers 'free' phones to all customers. Location based advertising pays for the phones. So you get a free phone, but it places advertisements to you based on your location.
